UAPI is the main interface for contribution to outside, that is our
main goal, and has the highest priority.

After new contents are added into UAPI, it is very hard to remove them
again: it is protocol, can only be complement, but can not be changed
(or will be a 'cheat').

So, for me, if we find the new contents in UAPI may have negative effect to
outside, we need stop it firstly (at least, not let it merged into main line).


If no any additional reply for it within this week, I shall send patch
v3 for it (simply remove them).

Thanks.
